The Odd Onion is a veggie.

Odd Onions have the same harvest yield in a garden as Carrots and Pogofruit; a majority of the crops will be carrots with a guaranteed net gain of 1 Odd Onion, while each remaining vegetable has a 1/5 chance of being an Odd Onion.

About[]

Odd Onions only grow in the craggy crevices of Rainbow Island; however, you'll never encounter an Odd Onion patch. Instead, Odd Onions can be found randomly in other veggie patches. Think of it like a treasure hunt where the treasure is onions!

On the Ranch[]

Deposit an Odd Onion into a garden's depositor and strangely, carrots will begin to grow. However, there is a good chance you'll get some odd onions in your crop as well.

Tips[]

  • Growing Carrots in a Garden do not produce Odd Onions; Odd Onions must be placed into the Garden recepticle for them to grow.
  • Due to the relatively small amount of Odd Onions that grow per harvest, it would probably be wise to convert Crystal Slimes into Largos with a favoured food that is easier to grow.
    • This is also the case with Meat.

Map[]

There is no dedicated Odd Onion patch. Instead Odd Onions have a chance to grow in Carrot, Heart Beet and Oca Oca.

Origin[]

The concept of the Odd Onion may be based on the slang term in literature meaning "not often", which is referenced in the Slimepedia Entry - "Forage into the Indigo Quarry and you'll always find the Odd Onion in your haul." - and demonstrated by its behaviour of occasionally growing with Carrots. Due to Odd Onions being present with other crops in the wild, they may suitably fit the role of weeds; this classification is reversed when Odd Onions are grown domestically to the Carrots that grow with them. Physically, it is a large onion with the coloration and swirl design reminiscent of Billy the Puppet, in particular his face, from the Saw franchise.
